Parents in job training programs through the Workforce Center

Teen parents from low-income families who need child care to attend school

Parents with low incomes who have children with disabilities

Options
With CCS, parents choose who will care for their children. Options include licensed child care centers, licensed child care homes, registered child care homes, or relatives. CCS assists parents in identifying their needs and determining the child care option that is right for them.
